firetv + flirc: crossy road game doesnt work

[laope]

hello

 

anyone has problem with the game 'crossy road' on the firetv using flirc ??

 

i got flirc the other day, i use it with the firetv and a harmony 700, it works fine in the firetv dashboard, or apps like youtube , netflix, twitch, Kodi, etc and games like Riptide GP2 , flappy bird, tabletop racing, badland.

 

but when i go to crossy road the controls just dont work. i dont know if is a flirc issue or the game.

if i use the firetv remote the game works just fine.

 

in the game description its says that support the firetv remote, like all the other games i mentioned already

I've reproduced this.

 

Short answer is, it's on the firetv side. I have a way of fixing this, and have something that works over here. 

It is a fundamentally big change, we'll see if I can get someone at amazon to listen first.
